The baseball bloggers of SB Nation decided to hold a vote similar in format to the BBWAA voting for induction into the Hall of Fame for 2010. The BBWAA results will be released on Wednesday, so we figured today would be a good time to release ours, to generate some discussion in advance of the official vote totals.
52 SBN ballots were returned; thus it took 39 votes for election. Only one player was elected; one other fell one vote short. Go past the jump to find the results.
